Clinical profile of steroid-induced glaucoma in Bali Mandara Eye Hospital year 2019

Introduction: Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy characterized by optic disc cupping and visual field loss usually associated with raised intraocular pressure. Glaucoma incidence is rapidly increasing, with global incidence is estimated to reach 76 million in 2020. There are many causes of glaucoma; one of them is corticosteroid use. Unmonitored steroid use can be resulting in undesirable side effects such as steroid-induced glaucoma. This study aims to evaluate the clinical profile of steroid-induced glaucoma in Bali Mandara Hospital year 2019.

Method: A descriptive-cross sectional study was conducted using secondary data involving 35 medical records of patients diagnosed with glaucoma in Bali Mandara Eye Hospital, Denpasar, from January to December 2019. Age, gender, steroid type, routes and duration of steroid administration were recorded from medical records. Obtained data were analyzed descriptively using SPSS version 23 for Windows.  

Results: Patient’s characteristics mostly were male 57.14% and 42.86% female, 31.43% were elderly >55 years old. They mostly used eye drops steroid (85.71%), and 14.29% took oral steroids. The most used eye drops were Dexamethasone eye drops (77.14%). For oral steroids, they took Methylprednisolone (8.57%) and Dexamethasone (5.71%). Most of them have symptoms after one year of steroid use (34.39%).

Conclusion: Steroid-induced glaucoma can occur in both males or females in all age groups, which the elderly and children have a higher risk. Most cases occur from topical steroids. Steroid-induced glaucoma is avoidable irreversible blindness. Therefore, the use of steroids must be judicious; self-medication must be avoided. The doctor must provide education to patients who are given steroid therapy.

Nilai diagnostik dari mean platelet volume (MPV) pada sepsis neonatorum di RSUD Wangaya, Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia

Background: Neonatal sepsis is a clinical syndrome of systemic disease with high morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis is still difficult to be done. A cheap, fast, and accurate septic marker is needed. Several studies of mean platelet volume have been done and are considered as one of the markers that can help diagnose neonatal sepsis early and accurately. The objective of this study is to assess the diagnostic value of MPV in neonatal sepsis.

Methods: This analytic observational study with the diagnostic test was done by collecting secondary data from medical records of neonates with suspicion of neonatal sepsis in Wangaya Hospital, Denpasar, from January 2019 to June 2020.  MPV cut-off point was determined with receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of MPV in neonatal sepsis were determined using a 2x2 table.

Results: Of 104 sample subjects, 16 subjects (15.4%) were diagnosed with neonatal sepsis. MPV with a cut-off point of 9.95 fl had 62.5% sensitivity, 61.4% specificity, 22% PPV, 90% NPV, and 61% accuracy.

Conclusion: MPV with a cut-off point of 9.95 fl can be used to diagnose neonatal sepsis with a 62.5% sensitivity and a 61.4% specificity.

Latar Belakang: Sepsis neonatorum merupakan sindrom klinik penyakit sistemik yang memiliki angka morbiditas dan mortalitas yang tinggi pada neonatus. Diagnosis sepsis neonatorum masih sulit dilakukan dengan cepat. Diperlukannya alat penanda sepsis yang murah, cepat, dan akurat. Beberapa penelitian mengenai mean platelet volume (MPV) telah dilakukan dan salah satu pilihan pemeriksaan yang diharapkan dapat membantu penegakan diagnosis sepsis neonatorum dengan cepat dan akurat. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui nilai diagnostik dari MPV pada sepsis neonatorum.

Metode: Studi observasional analitik dengan uji diagnostik ini dilakukan dengan mengumpulkan data sekunder dari rekam medis neonatus yang dirawat di RSUD Wangaya, Denpasar dengan kecurigaan sepsis neonatorum dari Januari 2019 hingga Juni 2020.

Hasil: Dari 104 subjek sampel, didapatkan subjek dengan diagnosis sepsis neonatorum sebesar 16 subjek (15.4%). Dengan titik potong MPV sebesar 9,95 fl, didapatkan nilai sensitifitas 62,5%, spesifisitas 61,4%, NDP 22%, NDN 90%, dan akurasi 61%.

Kesimpulan: MPV dengan titik potong 9,95 fl dapat mendiagnosis sepsis neonatorum dengan sensitifitas 62,5% dan spesifisitas 61,4%.

Asam urat serum tinggi dan risiko mortalitas kardiovaskular: sebuah tinjauan sistematik penelitian kohort

Introduction: Serum uric acid has been reported as a predictor of cardiovascular mortality, but there are many debates regarding this finding. This systematic review will analyze and discuss about serum uric acid as an indicator of cardiovascular mortality risk.

Methods: A literature search was carried out on the PubMed and ProQuest databases for publication that focused on the association of serum uric acid and cardiovascular mortality risk within 2015-2020. The preparation of this systematic review is based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA).

Results: In this review, four studies were relevant and met the selection criteria. All studies were prospective cohort studies. There were a total of 668,768 participants involved, with a slight female majority (55%). Participants involved in this study were aged 35 years or older. Three of the studies examined showed an association between high serum uric acid levels and cardiovascular disease mortality. Only one study did not show a statistically significant relationship. Each study used a different cut-off point for serum uric acid categories, making the uric acid indicator difficult to apply in clinical practice. The three studies conducted in Asia provide a more practical result that is relevant to the Indonesian population. In all three studies, results were consistent, showing elevated serum uric acid increases cardiovascular mortality risk.

Conclusion: Serum uric acid level can predict the risk of death from cardiovascular disease. The study conducted in Asia is quite relevant to the Indonesian population, where the results of the study significantly and consistently found that high serum uric acid levels can increase the risk of cardiovascular mortality.  

Pendahuluan: Asam urat serum dilaporkan dapat memperkirakan risiko dari mortalitas kardiovaskular, akan tetapi masih terdapat banyak perdebatan terkait temuan tersebut. Dalam tinjauan ini akan dibahas lebih jauh mengenai hubungan asam urat serum terhadap risiko mortalitas kardiovaskular yang disajikan dalam systematic review.

Metode: Pencarian literatur dilakukan pada database PubMed dan ProQuest dengan mengidentifikasi jurnal yang diterbitkan dari tahun 2015-2020 yang berfokus pada topik asam urat serum dan hubungannya terhadap risiko mortalitas kardiovaskular. Penyusunan systematic review ini disusun berdasarkan pedoman Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA).

Hasil: Dalam tinjauan ini terdapat 4 studi yang relevan dan memenuhi kriteria seleksi. Seluruh studi merupakan studi kohort prospektif. Terdapat total 668.768 partisipan yang terlibat dengan persentase perempuan sebesar 55%. Partisipan yang terlibat dalam studi ini berusia 35 tahun atau lebih. Tiga dari empat penelitian yang ditinjau menunjukan adanya hubungan antara kadar asam urat serum yang tinggi dengan kematian akibat penyakit kardiovaskular. Hanya satu penelitian yang tidak menunjukan hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik. Masing-masing penelitian menggunakan titik potong kategori asam urat serum yang berbeda-beda yang menyebabkan efektivitas indikator asam urat serum sulit untuk diaplikasikan. Tiga studi yang dilakukan di Asia memberikan gambaran yang lebih sesuai untuk aplikasi di Indonesia karena populasi partisipannya lebih mendekati keadaan populasi Indonesia.  Pada ketiga studi tersebut diperoleh hasil yang konsisten menunjukan peningkatan asam urat serum meningkatkan risiko mortalitas kardiovaskular.

Kesimpulan: Kadar asam urat serum dapat dapat memperkirakan risiko mortalitas akibat penyakit kardiovaskular. Studi yang dilakukan di Asia, cukup relevan dengan populasi Indonesia, dimana hasil studi ini secara signifikan dan konsisten mendapatkan kadar asam urat serum yang tinggi dapat meningkatkan risiko mortalitas akibat penyakit kardiovaskular.

Hubungan antara terapi statin dengan kadar gula darah puasa dan profil lipid pada pasien coronary artery disease di RSUD Sanjiwani

Background: Statin therapy has an important role to coronary artery disease (CAD) which can lowered cholesterol levels and give pleiotropic effects to inhibit inflammatory reactions. Statin have some side effects and new onset diabetes is one of them, where diabetes is also a risk factor for CAD. This study aims to know the correlation of statin therapy and fasting blood glucose levels of CAD patient in Sanjiwani Hospital.

Methods: The design of this study was analytic cross-sectional study that started from November 17th 2020 until January 31st 2021 in Sanjiwani Hospital. A total of 68 patients were included in this study. The data source of this study was secondary data from patient’s medical record. The inclusion criteria was all CAD patients with statin therapy who had history of fasting blood glucose test that visited cardiology department of Sanjiwani Hospital at year 2020. Normality test, bivariate, and multivariate analysis was done in this study.

Results: Bivariate analysis using Spearman showed a weak positive correlation between duration of statin therapy with fasting blood glucose levels (r=0,353; p= 0,003), and Kruskal Wallis analysis showed no correlation between statin type with fasting blood glucose levels.

Conclusion: Duration of statin therapy has a weak correlation with fasting blood glucose levels so that statin still can be given with concerns to its benefit of reduced mortality. Prevention of new onset diabetes should be done by lifestyle modification and periodic blood glucose monitoring.

Latar Belakang: Terapi statin memiliki peranan penting terhadap coronary artery disease (CAD) yang mampu menurunkan kadar kolesterol serta memberikan efek pleiotropik untuk menghambat reaksi inflamasi. Statin memiliki beberapa efek samping, salah satunya adalah risiko diabetes onset baru dimana diabetes merupakan salah satu faktor risiko CAD. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara terapi statin dengan kadar gula darah puasa pasien CAD di RSUD Sanjiwani.

Metode: Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah analitik cross-sectional yang dilakukan dari 17 November 2020 sampai 31 Januari 2021 di RSUD Sanjiwani. Sebanyak 68 pasien diikutkan dalam penelitian ini. Sumber data pada penelitian ini berupa data sekunder yang didapatkan dari rekam medis pasien dengan kriteria inklusi yaitu semua pasien CAD dengan terapi statin dan memiliki riwayat pemeriksaan kadar gula darah puasa yang melakukan kontrol di poli jantung RSUD Sanjiwani tahun 2020. Uji normalitas, analisis bivariat, dan multivariat dilakukan pada penelitian ini.

Hasil: Analisis bivariat dengan Spearman menunjukan adanya korelasi positif lemah antara durasi terapi statin dengan kadar gula darah puasa (r=0,353; p= 0,003), sedangkan hasil analisis Kruskall Wallis menunjukan tidak ada korelasi antara jenis statin dengan kadar gula darah puasa.

Simpulan: Durasi terapi statin memiliki hubungan lemah dengan kadar gula darah puasa sehingga terapi statin masih dapat diberikan dengan memperhatikan keuntungan terapi yang lebih besar. Pencegahan terhadap risiko diabetes onset baru tetap dilakukan dengan modifikasi gaya hidup serta pemantauan gula darah berkala.

Kesesuaian hasil pengukuran Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol menggunakan persamaan Friedewald, Hopkins, dan Homogeneous Enzymatic Colorimetric Assay di RSUP Sanglah, Bali, Indonesia

Background: LDL-C concentration can be obtained by calculation from equations and measurement methods. There are many LDL-C equations, but the most commonly used is the Friedewald equation, and the most recent is the Hopkins equation. This study aims to determine LDL-C measurements' agreement using the Friedewald equation, Hopkins equation, and homogeneous enzymatic colorimetric assay.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, from January-February 2020, with 570 samples LDL-C examination results by Friedewald equation, Hopkins equation, and homogeneous enzymatic colorimetric assay divided into 3 groups based on TG levels. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 17 for Windows.

Results: Spearman correlation test found a near-perfect correlation between LDL-C using Friedewald and Hopkins equations to direct examinations with values r =0.921 and r =0.907. Limit of agreement from the Bland-Altman test shows an average of >90% for both equations with direct measurements. Mann-Whitney test showed a significant difference between LDL-C direct measurement and Friedewald equation in Total Group, TG 200-400 mg/dL and TG> 400 mg/dL while for Hopkins equation only in TG group> 400 mg/dL (p<0.05). Based on Total Allowable Error (TAE) analysis, LDL-C from Hopkins equation in TG group 200-400 mg/dL appears to be superior to the Friedewald equation.

Conclusion: Friedewald equation and Hopkins equation give good concordance at TG levels <200 mg/dL while at triglyceride levels 200-400 mg/dL Hopkins equation gives better concordance than the Friedewald equation. At triglyceride levels,> 400 mg/dL Friedewald and Hopkins equations show low accuracy, so it is recommended to use the direct method.

Latar Belakang: Konsentrasi low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) dapat diperoleh dengan 2 cara yaitu menggunakan perhitungan dengan persamaan dan metode pengukuran langsung (direct). Banyak persamaan perhitungan LDL-C tetapi yang paling umum digunakan adalah persamaan Friedewald dan yang terbaru adalah persamaan Hopkins. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kesesuaian hasil pengukuran LDL-C menggunakan persamaan Friedewald, persamaan Hopkins dan homogeneous enzymatic colorimetric assay

Metode: Penelitian menggunakan rancangan analitik potong lintang dari bulan Januari-Pebruari 2020 dengan 570 sampel hasil pemeriksaan LDL-C dengan persamaan Friedewald, persamaan Hopkins dan homogeneous enzymatic colorimetric assay yang dibagi 3 kelompok berdasarkan kadar trigliserida (TG). Data dianalisis dengan SPSS versi 17 untuk Windows.

Hasil: Uji statistik Spearman didapatkan korelasi mendekati sempurna antara  LDL-C menggunakan persamaan Friedewald dan Hopkins terhadap pemeriksaan direct dengan nilai r=0,921 dan r=0,907. Limit of agreement dari uji Bland-Altman menunjukkan rata-rata > 90% untuk kedua persamaan dengan pengukuran direct. Uji Mann-Whitney menunjukkan perbedaan bermakna antara LDL-C pengukuran direct dengan persamaan Friedewald pada Kelompok Total, TG 200-400 mg/dL dan TG >400 mg/dL sedangkan untuk persamaan Hopkins perbedaan hasil yang bermakna hanya pada kelompok TG >400 mg/dL (p<0,05). Berdasarkan analisis Total Allowable Error (TAE), LDL-C persamaan Hopkins pada kelompok TG 200-400 mg/dL lebih unggul dari persamaan Friedewald.

Kesimpulan: Persamaan Friedewald dan persamaan Hopkins memberikan kesesuaian yang baik pada kadar TG <200 mg/dL sedangkan pada kadar trigliserida 200-400 mg/dL, persamaan Hopkins memberikan kesesuaian yang lebih baik daripada persamaan Friedewald. Pada kadar TG >400mg/dL persamaan Friedewald dan Hopkins menunjukkan akurasi yang rendah sehingga disarankan untuk menggunakan metode direct.

Hubungan diabetes mellitus dengan obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) di Gedung Mario Tabanan, Bali-Indonesia

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic case caused by the pancreas not being able to produce insulin and when there is insulin resistance. This disease is characterized by a lot of drinking, eating, weight loss and frequent urination. This drastic weight loss results in a decrease in body mass, one of which is the nasopharynx and oropharynx so that it can cause collapse and cause Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between diabetes mellitus and OSA in the social service held at the Mario Tabanan building on June 16, 2008.

Methods: An observational analytic study with cross sectional design with a sample of 110 people. This study was conducted at Mario Building, Tabanan, Bali, Indonesia.

Results: A total of 110 samples were successfully collected in this study, with an age range of 50-70 years, 55 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and 55 patients without diabetes. From the research above, it was found that there were more men than women, namely 67 people (58.3%) and women amounting to 43 people (42.7%). The average age who received OSA was 57.35 ± 10.89. The results of the study of the prevalence of patient respondents who suffered from DM with OSA were 65 people (53.5%) and patients who did not suffer from DM were 45 (46.5) and patients who did not have DM with OSA were 46 people (47.8%), and those who did not have diabetes and no OSA were 64 people (52.2%). There was a significant relationship between OSA and DM with a p value <0.05 and the prevalence ratio value was the Prevalent Ratio (RP) 1.432 with a confidence interval (1.024 to 5.980).

Conclusion: Diabetes is a risk factor for OSA, and there is a significant relationship between diabetes and the incidence of OSA.

Latar Belakang: Diabetes mellitus (DM) merupakan kasus kronis yang diakibatkan pankreas tidak mampu memproduksi insulin dan ketika ada resistensi insulin. Penyakit ini ditandai dengan banyak minum, makan, berat badan turun drastis dan sering buang air kecil. Penurunan berat badan drastis ini mengakibatkan penurunan massa otot tubuh salah satunya adalah nasofaring dan orofaring sehingga dapat menyebabkan kolaps dan menimbulkan terjadinya Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui apakah ada hubungan antara diabetes mellitus dan OSA pada baksos yang diadakan di gedung Mario Tabanan pada tanggal 16 Juni 2008.

Dari penelitian diatas didapatkan laki-laki lebih banyak daripada perempuan yaitu 67 orang (58,3%) dan perempuan berjumlah 43 orang (42,7%). Rata rata umur yang mendapatkan  OSA 57,35± 10,89. Hasil penelitian prevalensi responden pasien yang menderita DM dengan OSA adalah 65 orang (53,5%) dan, pasien yang tidak menderita DM adalah sejumlah 45 (46,5) dan pasien yang tidak DM dengan OSA adalah sejumlah 46 orang (47,8%) dan yang tidak DM dan tidak OSA adalah 64 orang (52,2%) Didapatkan adanya hubungan signifikan antara OSA dengan DM dengan nilai p<0,05 dan nilai rasio prevalens adalah Rasio Prevalen (RP) 1,432 dengan interval kepercayaan (1,024 sampai 5,980).

Simpulan: Diabetes merupakan faktor risiko dari terjadinya OSA, dan didapatkan hubungan yang bermakna antara diabetes terhadap kejadian OSA.

Brittle bone brothers: osteogenesis imperfecta conventional serial case

Background: Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a heredity connective tissue disorder due to COL1A1/2 gene mutation, causing a defect in encoding proteins to metabolize collagen. One of OI’s manifestations to musculoskeletal is bone incompetence, hence the name Brittle bone disease. We report three cases of OI type IV in adults with pathognomonic radiology findings.

Case Presentation: In Case 1, a 40-year-old Indonesian male came to the hospital with small stature and unsuited with his age. Conventional radiology examination found OI on all four extremities, anterior dislocation of left shoulder, and old fracture with an acute angle in the left radial shaft. In Case 2, a 41-year-old Indonesian male came to the hospital with short stature, causing limitation to his activities, and he confessed always to be shorter than people his age. Radiology evaluation suggests an OI in bilateral superior and inferior extremities, old fractures in the right humeral shaft also the left clavicle, acute angles right radius-ulna shaft, and osteoporosis in all visualized bones. In addition, in Case 3, a 42-year-old Indonesian male came to the hospital with short stature and pain within his bones, causing limitation to his activity. Conventional radiology imaging shows bilateral superior and inferior extremities, old fracture in the medial third of the left humerus and bilateral femur, acute-angled bilateral antebrachial-femur-cruris, and osteoporosis

Conclusion: Based on OI categorization, only type I and IV can live to adulthood, and the same type of OI can be found in siblings. Conventional radiology imaging provides a great help in diagnosing OI.

Telerehabilitation as a physical therapy solution for post-stroke patient in COVID-19 pandemic situations: a review

Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability among the adult population. One-third of post-stroke patients require ongoing physical rehabilitation to improve their motoric function. But in this COVID-19 pandemic situation, all outpatient visits or non-emergency cases, including in-clinic physical rehabilitation therapy, have been postponed and limited to maintain physical distancing to prevent the spreading of infection. Telerehabilitation can be the answer to overcome this circumstance.

Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search for online literature or studies in 2020. We explored evidence using the following database Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The keywords used to obtain the relevant research include “telerehabilitation” OR “telemedicine” AND “physical rehabilitation” AND “stroke patient” AND “COVID-19 pandemic”. The literature was analyzed based on the results of previous studies.

Results: Telerehabilitation delivers rehabilitation services via communication technologies involving the patient and the physical therapist communicate using telehealth platform and video-teleconference. Several telerehabilitation techniques can be used for stroke patients' physical exercise, such as portable transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TENS), mirror therapy, home exercise program, and virtual reality exercise. Several studies have shown that telerehabilitation is not inferior than in-clinic physical exercise, and both showed significant improvement in post-stroke patients' motor function.

Conclusions: Telerehabilitation can be the solution for post-stroke patient’s physical rehabilitation in the COVID-19 pandemic. This novel health innovation allowed the post-stroke patient to exercise at home and prevent them from the risk of COVID-19 infection.

Background: A high-energy trauma can cause fractures involving clavicle, scapula, and scapulothoracic dissociation with floating shoulder and vascular injuries. Early and correct diagnosis of fracture with vascular injury should be performed to prevent the patient from mortality. This case report aims to evaluate the left scapulothoracic dissociation with floating shoulder and grade IIIC open left clavicle fracture with Ideberg type III scapula fracture

Case Presentation: A 19 years old male was on a motorcycle-truck accident which was diagnosed with a rare left scapulothoracic dissociation with floating shoulder and grade IIIC open left clavicle fracture with Ideberg type III scapula fracture. The patient underwent arteriography, repair of the vascular injury, and open reduction internal fixation for the fracture.

Conclusion: A rare and complex case of scapulothoracic dissociation with floating shoulder and traumatic subclavian artery injury and clavicle with scapula fractures require early recognition and a multi-disciplinary approach to manage the injuries.

Anomalies of the sigmoid colon during laparotomy exploration: a case report of a redundant colon in the sigmoid and transverse colon

Introduction: The redundant colon is rare, often resulting in a late diagnosis because it is often asymptomatic and eventually leads to complications. The average person has a large intestine/colon 120-150 cm long in his abdominal cavity. The large intestine organ does not extend to the side but is tortuous to occupy the abdominal cavity. An abnormal condition can be found in the intestine length is beyond normal, known as “redundant colon”. The redundant colon may have additional loops or turns, which cause it to become longer. In people who experience the redundant colon, the process of removing feces in the body tends to be longer, so it often experiences constipation.

Case description: In this case, A 40-year-old patient of female gender reportedly came to the BIMC Hospital and complaints of her abdominal pain, unable to defecate for 3 weeks ago, and did not improve with enemas. The patient had a history of total hysterectomy 13 years ago. The abdomen's physical examination is distended while inspected, there is no tenderness during palpation, and has normal auscultation. CT-Scan investigation found redundant transverse colon, low ileocecal junction location, and many intraluminal (colonic) stools, as well as plain abdominal images with obstruction of the large intestine. In patients, an exploratory laparotomy has been performed.

Conclusion: Ileus obstruction was found due to momentum adhesion which tangled the sigmoid colon and was redundant in the transverse colon during the surgery. With proper management of this case, we hope this surgery can attain this case back to normal.

Constipation that needs attention: late Hirschsprung disease

Background: Hirschprung disease (HD) or congenital aganglionic megacolon is an intestinal motor disorder that occurs in approximately 1 in 5000 live births. It makes colon fail to relax, mainly producing the symptoms of constipation. Approximately 90% of cases are diagnosed in the first year of life. Most of the remaining 10% are made in early childhood, with less than 1% being made in teenagers or adulthood.

Case report: A 13 years old girl reported to the pediatric surgical outpatient department complaining constipation since birth. There was no history of delayed passage of meconium. A contrast enema study with water-soluble contrast showed high probability of ultrashort segment HD. Histopathological examination revealed neither nerve fibers with ganglion cells nor hypertrophy of nerve fibers were seen confirming the aganglionosis. Surgical treatment was performed with good clinical progression.

Conclusion: Despite of its rarity, the possibility of HD should be considered in teenagers with chronic refractory constipation, especially when there was a history of delayed or non-passage of meconium after birth. An accurate diagnosis is mainly based on collective assessment of medical history, clinical examination, contrast enema study, and rectal biopsy as a gold standard.

Anemia defisiensi besi pada pasien dengan ulkus peptikum: Laporan kasus

Background: Anemia is a decrease in hemoglobin levels from the standard limit that can be caused by iron deficiency and chronic bleeding. One-third (32.9%) of the world population is estimated to suffer from anemia, and iron deficiency is a common cause of anemia in all countries. The diagnosis is made through history taking, physical examination and investigations.

Case report: 59-year-old male patient with complaints of black stool, abdominal pain and weakness. On physical examination, found pale conjunctiva, angular stomatitis and atrophy of the tongue. On complete blood, the examination found a decrease in erythrocyte levels, hemoglobin, MCV, MCH, and MCHC and increased RDW-CV. Analysis of peripheral blood smears presents with hypochromic microcytic poikilocytosis anemia, serum iron is decreased, and increased TIBC. Chronic bleeding anemia accompanied by iron deficiency will cause ferritin levels to decrease or be normal to 60 µg / dl. The patient was diagnosed with peptic ulcers as seen from esophagoduodenoscopy and severe anemia caused by iron deficit and chronic bleeding. Patients were treated supportively with PRC transfusion, ferrous sulfate and vitamin C.

Conclusion: The patient’s iron deficiency anemia resulted from peptic ulcers, which caused chronic bleeding.

Latar belakang: Anemia merupakan kondisi dengan kadar hemoglobin yang lebih rendah dari nilai normal. Anemia dapat disebabkan akibat defisiensi besi atau perdarahan kronis. Sebesar sepertiga (32,9%) populasi didunia diperkirakan menderita anemia. Defisiensi besi merupakan penyebab umum anemia di seluruh negara. Penegakan diagnosis anemia dilakukan melalui anamnesis, pemerikaan fisik, dan pemeriksaan penunjang.

Laporan kasus: Pasien laki-laki 59 tahun dengan keluhan BAB hitam, nyeri perut dan lemas. Pada pemeriksaan fisik ditemukan konjungtiva anemis, stomatitis angularis dan atrofi papil lidah. Pada pemeriksaan darah lengkap ditemukan penurunan kadar eritrosit, Hemoglobin, MCV, MCH, dan MCHC, peningkatan RDW-CV. Pemeriksaan apusan darah tepi gambaran anemia bikromik mikrositer poikilositosis, serum besi menurun, dan peningkatan TIBC. Anemia perdarahan kronis disertai defisiensi besi akan menimbulkan kadar ferritin menurun atau normal hingga 60µg/dl. Pasien didiagnosis dengan ulkus peptikum dilihat dari hasil Esofagoduodenoskopi dan anemia berat yang disebabkan oleh defisensi besi dan perdarahan kronis.  Pasien diterapi suportif dengan Tranfusi PRC, pemberian ferrous sulphate dan vitamin C.

Kesimpulan: Anemia defisiensi besi pada pasien ditimbulkan oleh ulkus peptikum yang menyebabkan terjadinya perdarahan kronis.
